The climate section is pretty poor. Gisborne never has "tropical" weather. Potentially sub-tropical, but even that is questionable (sub-tropical implies mean temperature 22C in the warmest month by Koeppen definition. Gisborne has more like 20C mean temperature). As for the nonsense about recording temperatures higher in the "heart of the city", this can be applied to every city in the entire world. It's irrelevant to the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.154.145.33 ( talk) 02:20, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
I live in Kaiti and can happily grow a banana tree among other fruit. And I would consider Gisborne to be a sub-tropical city. Just a thought ~ Mojosa — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.75.125.203 ( talk) 23:56, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

I'd like to suggest that this New Zealand city is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. I've looked at page view stats:
Article title | Dec 2015 views | percentage |
Gisborne (surname) | 55 | 1% |
Gisborne District | 485 | 9% |
Gisborne Region (redirect) | 551 | 10% |
Gisborne, New Zealand | 3521 | 64% |
Gisborne (New Zealand electorate) | 97 | 2% |
Gisborne, Victoria | 739 | 13% |
Electoral district of Gisborne | 75 | 1% |
total | 5523 |
The New Zealand city's district, region (a redirect!) and the Victorian town all sit at around 10% of views, whilst the New Zealand city gets close to two thirds of the views. Comments welcome. I'll leave a note on the Victorian town's talk page so that page watchers can chip in. If this suggestion gets (near) unanimous support, let's move articles accordingly. If there's some dissent or not more than four comments in total, we can turn this into a formal move request. If it's clearly unsupported, we can leave things as they are.

The article says the Māori name is Tūranga-nui-a-Kiwa but no citation is provided. The Māori name for Poverty Bay (the embayment) is Tūranganui-a-Kiwa. The Māori name for Gisborne was formerly Turanga (which would now be written Tūranga). There are sources that say Tūranganui-a-Kiwa is the name for the "Gisborne area" (which seems to mean the Poverty Bay district, not the city). Is there a reliable source for what the Māori name of the city is? Nurg ( talk) 03:59, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
